Azer did his second PFT since he got here, and it was a little higher than last week's. He was annoyed that it wasn't significantly higher given that he had just done a breathing treatment and he felt really clear.
Azer's ABPA and Aspergillus test finally came back, and it looks negative for the most part, but the Pulmonologist said his IGE is still high, and there were particulates of aspergillus antibiodies evident. I'm not exactly sure what that all means, but she said basically we will go home continuing the IV antibiotics. At CF clinic, if his PFTs decline, they will do a CT scan to get a definitive conclusion of if he has ABPA nor not. If it turns out he does, he will either be readmitted or start a course of antifungal through his PICC line.
Now begins operation "Hospital at Home" featuring Azer's mom as resporitory therapist, pharmacist, nurse, physical therapist and more! 😆
